HDL (Good Cholesterol) Guidelines. Optimal levels for HDL (good) cholesterol are considered 60 mg/dL and higher. Slightly less great but still good levels are between 50 and 59 mg/dL. Levels that cause concern are considered 39 mg/dL or lower for men, and 49 mg/dL or lower for women.
NCEP defines a desirable total cholesterol level as less than 200 mg/dL, and levels for most women stay in the healthy or desirable range until middle-age. But between the ages of 45 and 55, women's average total cholesterol rises to almost 220 mg/dL. Between the ages of 55 and 64, those levels average 240 mg/dL. Total cholesterol levels between 200 and 239 mg/dL are considered borderline high, meaning you have a borderline-high risk of developing heart disease.
